Proof of her uselessness http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92QlfFQIC4A (fences are 1.45m in the first round, 1.50m in the jump off. Please pardon my pilot error in the JO, I had not seen fences that big in a LONG time and was a little overly conservative)

She wears a 54'' girth.

Great form, the both of you.

What's your horse's name and pedigree?

"Houston, Tranquility Base here, picking up where we left off ..."

Now, what is wrong with these horses that people should not like them? Maybe we should keep the breeds a secret.. heehee... Here's the funny thing. what warmblood would command a stud fee of more than $50,000? There are lots of Tbs that do that....
I love my tb, he has more heart and soul then most and personality!..... even with him being retired he still is my favorite! I guess the german version is okay I have one of them too!
My retired one has some nice relatives too.... Invasor and Leroidesanimaux.. I know not true halves but still in the breeding, same dad...

Met a boarder at my new barn today. We started talking about my horse and she said "He's a Quarter Horse". I reply, "Nope, he's a Thoroughbred". "Oh, you mean a Thoroughbred/Quarter Horse cross?" "Nooo, he's all Thoroughbred". "But he's so short! And stocky!" He's 15.3, he's not THAT short. She just couldn't believe it lol.

leahandpie, thanks! He is a special horse that's for sure! He has given me a whole new appreciation for this breed, taken me to new levels in this sport and really made me a much better horsewoman!
It takes a certain type of person to be able to relate and bond with a TB and I am so very happy that I am one of them. For those who can't, I am sorry!
